When the price of butter was "low," consumers spent $5 billion annually on its consumption. When the price doubled, consumer expenditures increased to $7 billion. Recently you read that this means that the demand curve for butter is upward sloping (i. e., price and quantity demanded are directly related, as price increases, quantity demanded also increases). Do you agree? Explain.
Draw and label a graph that depicts a linear, downward-sloping demand curve for beef brisket. Assume that when Walmart increases the price of beef brisket the revenue from sales of beef brisket increases. Assume that the demand for brisket does not change (the demand curve does not shift). Is the demand for beef brisket price-elastic or price-inelastic?
